  • I love the tunnel idea! But it is so low, how do you keep the snakes out?

  • @ZiptieTheDog Never had a problem with them. Just keep the eggs collected and if one comes by during the day my rooster kills them.

  • Why do you have the fish tank light in the run?

  • @pepperanne14 Chickens like a little light at night and this one is low wattage. In the winter they need some light to help them lay better.

  • Fantastic setup, well done and thanks for sharing.

  • Lovely coop and run. I particularly like the little tunnel. Ours is nowhere near as well thought out but you've given me lots of ideas. Thanks

  • @MotherLodeBeth Your set up sounds good. I never use that light anymore since I built the bigger coop. But as a fishtank light it is in a high moisture environment anyway. As long as it doesn't get a lot of water in the top of it, it will be ok.

  • Like your set up but is the fish tank like ok for outdoor use? Like when its raining and there is mositure in the air. I have an outdoor approved low watt bulb set up.

  • you really have a nice voice your in the wrong line of work with chickens......

  • Wow thats a really nice coop and run man!

  • Heck of a nice job.
